About Stephen

Hi! Stephen Lursen here!

I'm a full time artist and instructor in Charlotte NC. I earned my MFA in painting in 2012 from Winthrop University and specialize in drawing, painting, and mixed media 2D art. I regularly work in Photoshop CC and Final Cut X and teach digital art and video editing too! Please check out my website at (concealed information) and write to me with any questions at (concealed information)

I enjoy painting in bright bold colors. I hope to create art that is uplifting whether I include characters or not. I enjoy painting in numerous layers and with multiple tools/media to achieve diversity, depth, and interesting elements that draw the veiwer in close. I appreciate being able to talk about the effects of color and marks, and, how and what they communicate to your veiwer, when they look at your work.

I began teaching after graduating with my Master in 2012. My first opportunity was with Donna Downey Studios in Huntersville, NC and I have taught hundreds of classes, lessons, workshops since. I also sell online workshops from my website. Online workshops are an excellent value for their hours of content and replay-ability.

M.F.A. in Painting. Winthrop University 2012

B.A. in Painting. UNC Charlotte 2007

Director of Education at Donna Downey Studios for 4 years in Hutnersville, NC.

About the lesson

Step 1: Get to know student's skill set and goals.

Step 2: Agree on a project based curriculum to teach student new and improved skills during the production of an agreed upon work of art or design.

Step 3: Regularly evaluate execution and creative solutions to continually grow and develop.

Step 4: Once goal is met, create new goal/s and begin new projects to achieve said goal.

I have worked with children as young as 5 and adults too. I work with some professional artists and beginners.

It is important to have clear goals for what you wnat to achieve. Do you have an artist who inspires you and you would like to emulate (at first) to gain those skills? This is a great way to learn and grow from a beginner level to advanced. Once skill unlocks many others.

I was contracted by the Town of Huntersville to teach 200 walk up artists to paint during the Hello Huntersville Festival in May.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
What does the student want to achieve artistically?

Does the student want to connect their art with ecommerce or sales in some way?

Who are your favorite artists that you would love to learn to emulate as a first step?
